2024 MyNeuro Survey
The Neurological Alliance has worked with a number of partners to produce three surveys which aim to understand the experiences of people affected by neurological conditions in the UK and Republic of Ireland and provide insights to inform future advocacy, influencing, and service improvement at national and local levels.
There are three surveys:
• An adults’ survey – for adults (18 and above) with a neurological condition
• A young people and children's survey – for people under 18 with a neurological
condition
• A carers’ survey – for people (18 and above) who support someone with a
neurological condition or who are completing the survey on behalf of somebody
with a neurological condition.
This survey explores their experiences and the experiences of the person/people they care for. Parents, guardians and family members, and anyone who provides informal care or support to a person with a neurological condition can complete this survey.
Taking part really makes a difference. The experiences you shared in the 2021/2022 survey provided the evidence needed to call for on the government to
#BackThe1in6 people living with neurological conditions and establish a Neuro Taskforce. Please help keep that momentum going – fill out My Neuro Survey by clicking on the link below or the adjacent QR code .
West Berkshire Therapy Centre
The main objective of the Therapy Centre is to understand the currently unmet health and well-being needs of the local community and to identify opportunities for their provision.
The Therapy Centre is currently based at the Frank Hutchings Hall near Thatcham where they operate a gym equipped with power assisted exercise equipment, designed specially to accommodate users with physical limitations who would find it extremely difficult/impossible to use conventional gyms.
The next project is to build a community hydrotherapy pool. Significant progress has been made to acquire the necessary land and fund raising is about to start in earnest.
